i found no relevent info on this on the forum or the user docs.
here is the issue. i need to sync my zaurus sl6000l pda with gentoo but there is no explaination of how to do this.
the user docs are very old and made for gentoo 1.4 with devfs and the 2.4 kernel line. I use udev and the 2.6 kernel line.
I plugged it in, restarted hotplug, and typed: ifconfig usb0
which failed, device not found.
no idea what to do. |

Did you compile the Zaurus drivers into your kernel?
What is the output of | Code: | | tail -f /var/log/messages |
when you plug in the Z? If it isn't recognized as usbX, probably haven't included the zaurus drivers in the kernel (need hotplug too)
To get mine up and running I just had to | Code: | ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.201 netmask 255.255.255.255 up
route add -host 192.168.129.203 usb0 |
Once I got it working I edited /etc/conf.d/net to include the iface info needed.
Good luck, also check the zaurususergroup.com How to section, they have these instructions too |
